Question

According to the prevailing myth (i.e., and erroneous conception that continues to be accepted) of the Native American societies, these were groups of people that _______

Answer 1

Answer:    Were "barbaric" and "uncivilised"  

Explanation:  According to this prevailing myth, Native Americans have been viewed as barbaric and uncivilised peoples since Columbus, and during colonisation and various settlements by white people. What is characteristic of the Natives is that they had, and in essence they still have a different culture and complete vision than white people. Such a culture and way of life was seen by the white man as something of a need to "ennoble" and "civilise". The white man's culture, on the other hand, is based on the Christian doctrine of mass imposition of his Christian views and cultural patterns, believing that they are doing a good deed and carrying out some kind of God's idea. Of course, such an attitude and missionary was one of the tools for colonisation, expansion of influence and obtaining resources, while, on the other hand, the natives who were seen as barbarians and uncivilised had a completely different attitude to both nature and other races of people.
